Akritae for Lion Rampant

[Ade G]

I want to put together a skirmish force of akritae for the Dragon Rampant ruleset.
 My reading about akritae border troops leads me to think of them as predominately unarmoured/"light" types with various missile weapons with some riders. Armenians seem to figure prominently as do local nobility as officers. The distinction between akritae and bandits seems somewhat loose as well? 2 x archers, 2 x skirmishers, 2 x light cavalry and a heavier mounted unit led by the local noble seems sensible. Maybe a unit of unarmoured. defensive spearmen? They will contest with Bulgar and Arab raiding parties

Sorry not a great help on the period but curious why Dragon rather than Lion rampant as you are clearly looking for historical troops?

Because between writing the title and then the content I had a brain f**t :-) Happens all the time

If I had a pound for every time I have done something similar I would be a richer man.
